How To Achieve Old Money Aesthetic With Sunglasses
Opt for High-Quality Classic Pieces
Invest in sunglasses made from quality materials. Brands like Saint Laurent, Krewe, Celine, and Dior offer high quality classic options that fit perfectly with the money aesthetic. These brands often have summer sales too, so keep an eye out for discounts and free shipping offers.
Choose Timeless Styles
Select timeless designs like cat eye, aviator, or round frames. These styles are sophisticated and versatile, making them perfect for mixing and matching with various outfits. Also, be sure to look for pieces with UV protection to ensure your eyes are safe while looking stylish.
Add a Modern Twist
While classic styles are key, don’t be afraid to add a modern twist. For example, the Krewe sunglasses with fun detailing along the frame or the Celine hexagon frames can add a contemporary edge to your old money style.
Consider Your Face Shape
Choose sunglasses that complement your face shape. Cat eye frames are great for heart shaped faces, while round frames can soften angular features. Finding the right fit enhances your personal style and makes sure you always have a sophisticated look.
